Frank Martino

1. Dawn of Midi, Dysnomia, (Erased Tapes Records, 2015). Il piano trio più particolare che abbia sentito negli ultimi tempi: il disco è un flusso continuo e ossessivo di frasi ripetute ciclicamente e sezioni che si sovrappongono. Difficile definirlo in modo chiaro. Sembra di ascoltare la musica di Jon Hopkins suonata in formazione acustica ...

Jazz in 1's and 0's
by Jeff Fitzgerald, Genius
If one were to happen by the GeniusDome, providing you could navigate the gauntlet of traps and snares leading to the door and pass muster by my parakeet Al Neri, you'd be greeted warmly and welcomed into my inner sanctum. You'd notice a veritable forest of guitars, an inexplicable collection of hot sauces and Barbecue sauces, ...
Donny McCaslin Live at BIMHUIS, Amsterdam
by BIMHUIS
As the bandleader on David Bowie's final album Blackstar, saxophonist Donny McCaslin witnessed first-hand the musician's penchant for reinvention.

Donny McCaslin: Blow
by Roger Farbey
At first listen, Blow sounds more like a rock album than a jazz one. The catchy “What About The Body" could arguably be mistaken for one of King Crimson's more vituperative numbers featuring Adrian Belew. Ryan Dahle's emotionally-charged vocals are equally at the forefront of the explosive “Club Kidd." But the selection also includes three instrumental ...
